I had a problem like this A LONG TIME AGO (back in Windows 3.1) and it turned out to be a bad Genius Mouse. Ever since then I only use MS or Logitech mice. To check if this is the case, try a different mouse.

I have had it happen sometimes with my Logitec optical mouse. When you can't move the mouse, you have to use the power button and start over. Now I don't touch anything until startup is all loaded.
